Que lastima...
..this is a poem by Maya Angelou...
...Oh how you used to walk
With that insouciant smile
I liked to hear you talk
And your style
Pleased me for a while.
You were my early love
New as a day breaking in Spring
You were the image of
Everything
That caused me to sing.
I don't like reminiscing
Nostalgia is not my forte
I don't spill tears
On yesterday's years
But honesty makes me say,
You were a precious pearl
How I loved to see you shine
You were the perfect girl.
And you were mine.
For a time.
For a time.
Just for a time.

Paraiso!
...what would you call a place where, wherever you turned you head you saw chocolate in every shape and form, all kinds of cakes, miles and miles of sweets, people offering to try whatever looked good in your eye, ice cream in every flavor, cheese pies, bread, cookies...oh cookies!
...a diabetics hell!
...a diabetics hell!
...chocolate, chocolate, chocolate...
...and the smell....

...don't feel bad, I didn't eat anything either...
****
...even these were made out of chocolate...
****
****
...it was the baker's fair held in Athens, with thousands of people attending, eating, drinking, tasting...
...with lots of new things to discover..
...and a nice way to spend a Saturday afternoon...

Un Domingo
...have you noticed that I don't post a lot lately?
...I must be going through changes...I've become quieter..
...maybe I'm healing...or trying to listen to my soul, so I need to be quite...
...I find comfort in things that I haven't done in a long time...like a family lunch at a neighborhood pub...
...I must be going through changes...I've become quieter..
...maybe I'm healing...or trying to listen to my soul, so I need to be quite...
...I find comfort in things that I haven't done in a long time...like a family lunch at a neighborhood pub...
...with honest talks...
...I was rated today by my children...my mark wasn't very satisfying!
...I shouldn't forget that they're teenagers...
...it was a gloomy day in Athens that turned into light rain...
...we lit some candles...
...watched a movie...
...my arms are hurting from working...
...I'm thinking big about my work...
...I can't talk much...
...I'm also typing...
...studying...
...reading...
...but I'm quite...

Amores lejanos...
...if you thing that St. Valentine is an ass...
...if love...
...stabbed you...
...gave you wings...
...betrayed you...
...lifted you...
...bruised you...
...transformed you...
...made you loose sleep...
...helped you see who you are...
...made you smile...
...disappointed you...
...made you sing...
...made you scream...
...gave you sunshine...
...brought you darkness...
...awakened you...
...made you loose yourself...
...then you really felt love...
...you have touched LIFE!
